How to programatically resetAction after rollback?

Question

Hi,
how can i programatically execute resetAction after rollback?
        OperationBinding operationBinding = bindingContainer.getOperationBinding("Commit");
        Object result = operationBinding.execute();
        /* in case commit fails, rollback automatically */
        if (!operationBinding.getErrors().isEmpty()) {
            operationBinding = bindingContainer.getOperationBinding("Rollback");
            result = operationBinding.execute();
            /* *** here, i should reset action, how? *** */  
        }

Hi Frank;
I am using a parameterized search form (using named bind variables), which also displays the results.
The user enters values for a three part key.
I have valueChangeListener on the third inputText, where I perform an executeWithParams.
If a record is found in the database, and the form is populated, the user is then free to perform edits.
If a record is not found in the database, we naviage to a creation form.
If they want to delete the record (only available in the search/edit form), and use a delete commandLink, they are offered a confirmation dialog.
If they indicate that they want to continue with the delete, we execute the "DeleteTrip" action binding.
After the action binding completes, I would like to present an empty form for the user to enter another set of keys (with and empty EO and VO).
Here is my delete commandLink tag:
<af:commandLink action="dialog:confirmDelete"
textAndAccessKey="&amp;Delete"
immediate="true"
useWindow="true"
windowHeight="50"
windowWidth="200"
partialSubmit="true"
returnListener="#{backing_Edit.handleDeleteTrip}"
id="commandLinkDelete">
<af:resetActionListener/>
</af:commandLink>
It seems the resetActionListener fires before executing the code in the returnListener, thus when the DeleteTrip action binding completes, the record just deleted remains in the form onscreen; and to get my desired behavior, the user must click a "Clear" link to execute the clear_action listed below.
Here are the four pertinent methods in the edit form backing bean:
public void handleDeleteTrip(ReturnEvent event) {
if (event.getReturnValue() != null) {
String ret = event.getReturnValue().toString();
if (ret.equals("delete")) {
bindings.getOperationBinding("DeleteTrip").execute();
commit_action();
public void commit_action() {
appMod.getTransaction().commit();
reInit();
private void reInit() {
// The importance of this method is to set all bind variables null
// and re-execute the TripView query in order to empty the EO
ADFUtils.setBoundAttributeValue("bindYear", Calendar.getInstance().get(Calendar.YEAR));
ADFUtils.setBoundAttributeValue("bindManagementAreaCode", null);
ADFUtils.setBoundAttributeValue("bindTripNo", null);
bindings.getOperationBinding("ExecuteWithParams").execute();
appMod.getTransaction().clearEntityCache(null);
public void clear_action() {
bindings.getOperationBinding("Rollback").execute();
reInit();
Any help toward clearing a form after executing a delete action binding would be greatly appreciated!!
